Outlook stops sending and receiving after being opened for a few hours.
The other Victor….
MicrosoftWell, it seems like sympatico.ca is not Victor's domain:
Thanks guys, but I am using the new Outlook 365 for my email.
Hi,
I'd definitely recommend moving yourself off of POP/SMTP and migrating to the best experience with MAPI over HTTP.
As the folks have mentioned in this thread, you'll need to sort out a load of DNS and get autodiscover working correctly to connect to the right OA endpoint.
Cheers,
Tony
Thanks very much for the advice, but being a noobie, could you explain in detail how I would do this migration?
- Victor_UngureanuOutlook 365 it's not a thing. You are mixing Office 365 and Outlook, but in reality you are using the Outlook client to connect to a mailboxes hosted outside of Office 365.
Just wanted to straighten out a few misunderstandings here (MS you should really differentiate your product naming), there IS such a thing as "Outlook 365", and "Office 365" need not be a cloud service as such. It is also a way to purchase the Office Suite of Applications.
The OP has just purchased Office 365 Home (my best guess) which is an application with very few cloud offerings connected to it. Sadly Exchange online is not a part of it... This is where "Outlook.com Premium" would come into play, as Exchange Online is primarily focused on business customers.
Outlook.com Premium has a VERY easy migration wizard and most people will be able to follow it.
So basically the OP has purchased the latest and greatest Outlook desktop client (which is now branded Outlook 365 if you stay current on your updates) - and is using it with a (sorry to say it) crappy mail provider.
Victor, you need not purchase Outlook.com Premium og Office 365 with Exchang eOnline.. but you should consider it, it is a very good service, and Outlook.com Premium is dirt cheap compared to Exchange online. https://premium.outlook.com/?sl=1#/OfferV3.
